some wook passed out in my campsite... we checked his pockets while he slept to make sure he didn't make off with any of our stuff, then we got him up and made him cleanup our entire site and sent him on his way.

Someone got us for a cooler full of keystone and a chair... all and all not bad it helped that we found stuff here and there on the ground... to makeup for it

That happened to my wife and I last year. We were sure to lock everything up every time we left this year and had no issues.

what do you mean found stuff on the ground? because i left some of my "stuff" next to my tent for a minute and some sh*thead walking by picked it up and made away before i figured it out... thats just not right
As your attorney I advise you to drive at top speed and it'll be a Goddamn miracle if we get there before you turn into some kind of wild animal. Are you ready for that? Checking into a Las Vegas hotel under a phony name with the intent to commit capital fraud with a head full of acid? I certainly hope so...

On Thursday when I got back to my campsite, I was sitting around talking to my buddy when I heard my tent being unzipped. A girl stumbled out with a pack of cigs, lit one up, said "That was awkward, sorry," and left. I checked my tent, and everything was there. She had tried to open my bottle of wine, but otherwise no harm done. Kind of a funny way to end my first day of Bonnaroo. She also left a little hand rolled cig that I found the next day, so I smoked it.

we were alseep friday night and my husband woke up to the sound of someone rummaging through our cooler.... he told him to f*ck off. i mean if he had asked for a beer it would have been different, but to invade someones campsite in the middle of the night...that is totally effed up. this was in "guest camping" so...i guess there are shady ass mfers everywhere.

On Saturday a dude came by our camp and was asking everyone if they had seen a wheelchair. Apparently someone had stolen his friend's wheelchair and he was looking for it. I thought that was completely f**ked up.
Then on Monday, while we were packing up our camp, someone a few tents down was talking about his credit card getting stolen. He called the credit card company and found out they had run up 500 dollars on it, and he had to file a report so his fraud protection would kick in.
In 2004 I lost my wallet in Centeroo and it was returned with everything in it to lost and found. I was amazed. I would not have expected the same thing to happen in the campgrounds though.
We were in the camping only section and while we where at WSP someone came by and stole backpacks out of a bunch of tents around us. They got my bag, but it was empty except for my athsma medicine. Major bummer, luckily it was Sunday and still had some leftover medicine I spilled on the floor or my tent. One of the guys close to our tent got it bad. They took his pack and it was full. I saw these local looking "ghetto" type sitting around our site earlier on Sunday. I have a feeling they were staking out the area and were most likley the ones who did it. I have to say the overall vibe was cool, but nothing even close to the Phish festies of the past. I went to three Phish festies and never even heard or saw half of the B.S that went on at B'roo this year.

I was in the medic tent in pod #4 around dusk when someone came in and said that their buddy had left his chair outside the port-o-let and when he came out it was gone.
Yeah, that sucks in the worst way. Sorry they hadn't found it by Sat. I do know that they had extra chairs over there in the access tent, not that that will replace one made for you.

This is all so sad to hear ... I really didn't have any problems in the tent-only section. There were a few shady characters roaming around looking into tents, but I never saw anyone steal anything. Some guy did offer to sell me a guitar on Thursday night for $50...it's highly unlikely that it was his. Other than that, I did find a number of my beers missing by Sat. night. But at least the little thieves left me one. One. Nice, huh?

all of my juices, ensures, waters, fruit, and snacks were taken out of my cooler at some point on saturday night... it only made my decision to hit the road early sunday that much easier.

Someone stole my last beer.... That angered me, but hey atleast it was the last one and they didnt make off with more. Also a girl a few tents down had her backpack stolen and her wallet and car keys were in it. Poor girl.

We got hit the last night. Our first Bonnaroo, we got relaxed...bam. Got money and CDs carelessly laying outside of the tent. Our mistake....still feels bad
You guys just have to remember that there are some real sketchy mf'ers at these festivals. Their entire means of support is stealing stuff from people like you. They skip from show to show ripping people off in one way or another. Always, always, always keep your eyes open. Many of these guys rolling around with dreadlocks and the hippy look aren't really hippies - they're just scumbags looking to get one over on you.
We were at TOOL and this toothless, cracked out Indian looking guy was like grinding against a guy in front of him and the guy was getting really agitated. His friend told the guy like 3 times to stop dancing on him and then he finally listened and left. After he left, the guy checked his pockets and couldn't find his shrooms. So he tells everyone around him that the guy made off with his shrooms and we're all in just shock and awe. I thought it was funny because the same guy asked me for a cigarette and I told him the one I was smoking was my last one... couple of minutes later he asked for a hit of my cigarette... so I took a big long drag and told him he could have it... So he decides to give me a dollar for like a lit cigarette butt. I didn't object.
Come to find out too, the guy's shrooms didn't get stolen, he just didn't look well enough in his pockets.
We had nothing taken - but we did lock up stuff - but there were people around us that had stuff stolen and there was a shady character that wandered through the campsite late Sunday night (lucky for us - we all cam in at different times during the night
my girlfriend had her bag taken, it had everything, her $250 canon powershot, her wallet with 50+ bucks in it and her cell phone, also friday night before we left for tool she left a handle of smirnoff out and i made a effort to put it in the cooler....the next morning it was gone that was just insult to injury...we checked lost and found 3 or 4 times with no luck of finding anything we were hoping they would at least return her car keys or something but to no avail
